Tips for Storing Your Clothes

We spend hours reading fashion magazines, shopping and choosing our clothes, but when we own the garments it’s all too easy to shove them in the back of the wardrobe or in a drawer and forget they even exist. But stop: our clothes deserve more respect!
Organising your wardrobe and storage can not only help to store your clothes so that they don’t get damaged or excessively creased, but can help you find the things you’re looking for quickly and easily. There’s nothing more annoying than frantically searching for that perfect top that would complete the outfit, to no avail – only to find it scrunched in the back of a random drawer two days later.
Start by de-cluttering
First things first: get rid of all the clutter you no longer need and be ruthless. Are you really going to wear that tie dye crop top again in the future? Is there any reason why you’re keeping that horribly stained t-shirt? For items that are still in good condition try the local charity shop or eBay – you never know you might even make some money from your pre-loved clothes.
Organise your clothes by type
For many people wardrobe space is scarce, so think carefully about the clothes you wear the most. Hang these items according to type: jeans, work shirts, skirts, trousers etc. Item type can work better than colour coding as logically, that’s where you’d look first for a particular style of clothing; plus colours are easier to spot anyway if you’re looking for a certain color.
If possible, store off-season garments somewhere else to stop them overwhelming wardrobe space. Vacuum pack bags are great for this and are relatively inexpensive. They work by allowing you to seal and compress your clothes in an airtight, waterproof bag – your vacuum cleaner sucks all the air out to compress the bag, so you can store it away in a cupboard somewhere.
Get bespoke furniture
If you have some budget to spend it is worth investing in some decent furniture that will help you stay organised. Fitted bedroom furniture that includes pull out drawers for your shoes, racks for ties and scarves, and shelves for folded items can make finding and storing clothes simple. This is an especially good option of you have tricky room dimensions like slanted roofs, as all the space can be maximised with ingenious design solutions.
Alternatively, if your budget doesn’t stretch that far, try your local home interiors or improvement store. If you have a high ceilinged wardrobe you could add another rail at the bottom, doubling the space. If this isn’t an option take a look at the range of different hanging options, for example hanging fabric shelves for added space.
Relax and enjoy!
After all that hard work you will be left with a sense of achievement, organisation and peace. Just think, you’ll never be left frantically searching for that perfect top ever again!
